The problem with SoCal (I guess it's not really a problem) is the competition there. It is SUPER competitive and everyone wants to do well. Sometimes hacking just happens....all the way up thru the Pro classes. We don't do it on purpose, but sometimes we try to force a move and it just happens. Everything there happens SOOOOO fast that you make a move and it's a do or die thing.

TP > I would have to agree with you.
SoCal is nice, but i prefer the fresh air and asphalt of a parking lot.
See you at Revelation.

Tony's right about being ultra competitive. So Cal is a short track, very tight, with tons of drivers, so contact is inevitable. However, I think the race buck thing there also lends to that win or die mentality. At other tracks where there are no prizes up for grabs, I've noticed people are not fixated on winning, they come out more to see friends, race together, and just have fun. I've found though, that if you can drive well at So Cal against some of the best competition, that you'll do well wherever else you choose to race at later on. The track simply teaches you how to drive, especially in traffic.

I agree with kevink2. Racing at SoCal has made me a much better driver. That's the reason I like to race there, its ultra competitive, and that makes it fun! But, since the course is tight and very fast, contact will happen. It's just racing.
